it's easy to make the QB a scapegoat. I thought all-in-all tanner was a good QB, especially compared to past WFU QBs. too bad he didn't redshirt though. That was a mistake.
Mistake? Who else would have been our QB?
Tanner was by far our best option as a true freshman, pretty pathetic really.
Let's take a step back and discuss player development. We have none. But, let's discuss this topic nonetheless.

Tanner is a C-USA gadget QB who would be above average in a pass heavy spread offense. That's what he's always been. Deal with it.
Kid is not a winner.
Numbers you're an amazing fan boy when it comes to your teams, something that I kind of admire. But dude you overrrate every player you follow.
Tanner is a system gadget QB. Which makes him a dime a dozen in today's college football.
Here are the QBs Grobe brought to Wake between the 2006 and 2013 classes:
06 ** Zach MacDowall
07 *** Skylar Jones
08 *** Ted Stachitas
09 *** Brendan Cross
10 ** Patrick Thompson
10 *** Tanner Price
11 *** Kevin Sousa
12 *** Tyler Cameron
13 ** Michael Radford
Before 2006, QB recruiting used to be a strength.
Apparently you know nothing about football at all. You are wrong about Camp and you are wrong about Price. Tanner is an ACC level QB. He gets no help. The scheme has sucked, he runs for his life a lot and his receivers drop a lot of balls. He isn't Riley, nor is he a great QB, but he isn't terrible.

Tanner is good in the pocket, with time. On the run, Tanner constantly fails to square up his shoulders and he throws the ball across his body (with no zip on it or skips it into the ground). With a better line and more time, he could be very good, but he has not had that here at Wake.
This is most exactly what happens every single game. Our team makes zero adjustments at halftime and other teams that are more well coached makes game changing adjustments and reverse momentum. I would imagine we almost lead college football with minus score differential in the third quarters of games over the Jim Grobe years.
He is okay in the pocket but not great. His mechanics are still bad and I just can't think of many times I've seen him throw a ball down field and thought "that was a pretty pass." I agree that Tanner was an average qb talent playing on some very bad teams with very bad coaches.
